Corrupt Kentucky sheriff brought down by reporters
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 5 май 2012
- When two small-town newspaper reporters in Kentucky began investigating the corrupt local sheriff, they not only got headline stories. They also got death threats. Byron Pitts reports.
If a couple of college students can bring down a corrupt sheriff, the "good cops" of America have no excuse for not taking action when they see corruption.
@You're DumbWhat makes a "good cop" by your definition? Because I can probably find countless cop profiles on the internet that fit that bill.
@You're Dumb that not how it works but okay
No there's good people out there but like everyone else they're silenced by the corrupt people
there are a few rare unicorn cops out there but not enough to make any real impact
It's the thin blue line brotherhood and rank. Protect your fellow brother and NEVER QUESTION your Superior officer. When good cops rat on bad cops they face a rath like no other just ask one.
Dirty cops sentencing should be twice as bad as a regular citizen..its abuse of position and power...its time to start setting an standard that dirty cops will think twice.
Not just that but tax payers shouldn't pay either it should come their retirement funds n other stuff the police have
Absolutely agree - when I lived in Germany they used to double the fines for speeding if they caught you within roadworks - made everyone just that little bit more careful!
@@wethepeople2571 No, tax payers should have to pay triple of whats rewarded. The only thing that gets peoples attention these days is messing with their money. Maybe if we dump a massive burden on people they'll finally start demanding real change.
And 4x for politicians and presidents! :)
Put them in general population and see what happens. I'll get the popcorn
Amazing story. A young man and young lady with real integrity. America needs people like that more now than ever.
except for the bald guy 'duhhhh he only wrote for da high school he's an approved government shill like me durrrr'
True crime novel book project
I am currently hard at work trying to publish a true crime novel which I have written regarding the out of control police corruption in the state of Alaska which has directly affected me and has had a major impact on my life and the lives of many other innocent people in the state of Alaska. I have been stalked, tormented, set up, framed, falsely accused, poisoned, attacked and even had evidence planted in my home by law-enforcement in North Pole Alaska and during the winter of 2018 I found myself dating a woman who was a police informant (a plant) and one evening on January 11 2019 this woman and her state policeman (handler) followed me around town and waited until I was at a convenience store where he had her jump in to my vehicle and dump a massive quantity of crystal meth into my soda, I saw this take place and when I ran out of the store they had already left, I followed them across town to a location where they met up with other officers, I pulled up behind them and attempted to get their license plates but I could not remember them, I did however positively ID my girlfriend sitting in the passenger side of a black Jeep Wrangler, there was nothing I could do and at the time I did not know what she had done inside my vehicle and I quickly drank my soda and left but about 20 minutes later I began overdosing and swerved into a store parking lot where I asked the store clerk to call for help, within minutes I was in the back of an ambulance fighting for my life overdosing. I tried to talk to the staff at the hospital and ask them for police assistance and was ignored, I tried reporting this with no success to multiple law-enforcement agencies including internal affairs, umbudsman, attorneys and civil rights groups, including countless posts on social media with no luck at locating anyone who seems to care or were able to help, (I seem to only end up on the phone with undercover agents) since then my life has been a roller coaster ride of surveillance, intimidation, torments. I’ve been under surveillance by more law enforcement agencies across the country that I can think of as well as had my rights violated on a continual basis even up to this present day I am still being hounded and tormented and even threatened by these people in more ways than I could mention to maintain their coverup and keep hidden any evidence against them, I live in constant fear of retaliation by them and never know when or how they will retaliate to stop me from telling the world my story this along with other similar experiences as well as my life in Alaska will all be going in my book which will be published asap, Please invest in a copy of my book to help tell my story to the world, there’s more to the story than just me, there are the innocent lives of people falsely accused and wrongly imprisoned all over Alaska who were thrown in jail and falsely accused by the same crew of corrupt police officers, please help me take up this fight and help me tell my story, All I need is for others to care and care about what happened to me and the many others who are falsely imprisoned as well as your own rights which are at risk if this is not exposed and dealt with! Thank you for taking the time to read this God bless you all my fellow Americans.
I salute these two reporters. Best example of local journalism I've seen in decades. And I worked as a newspaper reporter in an Indiana county with a similar experiences. Two consecutive sheriffs were arrested while in office. Our newspaper had no role in those arrests, and neither sheriff did anything approaching the seriousness of this Whitley County goon. As reporter there, I faced down intimidation from officials and never yielded, but the courage of Adam and Samantha is heroic. I don't know if I could have held together under all that.
You know you're a damn good journalist when you got feds calling you saying your life is in danger
Downright scary
At the moment, though, you probably would not be congratulating yourself on your skills.
???? OR...a really crap journalist.
Lol 😂
I'd say you have weak Federal agent's
Convictions of 15 associates... 👏👏👏 And this young man chose to stay in his community and better it. My goodness what a warrior. Respect from a Veteran of the U.S Military to you sir!
Thanks for your service Melvin God bless you!
Melvin Sprewel Thank you for your service!
Thank you for your service sir, from the proud granddaughter of a U.S Marine!
this is exactly the type of youngsters we need in this country now!
The most scary part is there are so many more police officers like this and its about time the good police officers stand up against all corruption.

Why is this young man unemployed? Someone give him a job! Smart, honest, fearless, and law abiding young man with a degree- what better qualifications do you need?
This is from 8 years ago so he probably has a job by now.
He is not that young anymore. its been 8 years lol, hes almost 40. Not saying its old but im sure he has a career by now!
@@Stanley4558 if it was 8 years ago when he was 20 how could he be 40 LOL. you mean 28

"You never pull a gun unless you're willing to use it" Smart kid.
Unless you’re a cop, then you pull your gun every time your feefees get a little hurt. Gotta juice that ego.
@@ObservationofLimits Pistol whippin' time boiyo
I immediately said to myself "I like this kid" when he said that.
If everybody started responing to law enforcement like that kid we would have a lot less corruption
If you ask me, Not too smart. Didn’t capitalize on his investigative journalism abilities in this explosive case. He still in that tiny town, jobless and broke.
This is what courage and bravery is. Not seeking to offend.
THIS is what journalism is.
It's a good thing there's still people in this world that are paying attention to things
The whole department should have been removed, He was not acting alone, you don't just go in to the garden and pull one weed.....
Their were 15 convictions

@@ZygimantasA I didn't see anyone else in that department sacked?
@@neiljennings1556 u even watched and LISTEENED to the whole thing?
your answers are there...
Giving this major crook only 15 years is a slap in the face of Justice.
being a public official, especially a police officer, should be aggravating circumstance in such cases, this should be 25 to life
Agreed
He got out last year, he's back to work for another agency.
Go do 15 years and come back and tell us if it was a slap on the face.
@@dvach6352 Source? That would be crazy if thats true
A great story of how good people can make a difference. Those two from the newspaper did an awesome job. The young lady is beautiful and articulate.
The reporters are 2 awesome reporter’s I see big things for there futures good luck guys there needs to be more people like you 2 THANK YOU 2 very much proud of you 2
Those two reporters are heroes. They risked their lives to expose evil. More power to you, and may your days be long and blessed.
I agree. It's a shame the major National News Media doesn't have reporters of their caliber.
Young man ought to be proud of himself. Damn good job!
It’s a proud day to be an all American 😂

lol, thank you for this comment. I read it after someone thought it appropriate to bring race into the matter. And, sorry for bringing it up now :/ Hilarious though
Yeah, but where's the DOG??? lol
Omg. I cant with these comments. This is too funny. Who thinks of these clever comments. The comments are funnier than most content.
These young kids saved their town from evil.
The way these southern elected county sheriffs positions are set up makes corruption easy so the next sheriff might not be much better.
Lol there’s evil everywhere, one moves out another moves in.
But only temporarily. This left a vacuum to be filled, and I'm sure it has been now.👿👿👿👮👮👮😈
I'm proud of you young men....and lady. You both did GOOD!
As a retired investigative journalist who focused on local LE, respect on a great job done.
Damn, a reporter had to pull a gun out. This guy is my hero.
Why is noone talking about how badass and smart Adam is? That dude is the definition of a stand up guy
ABSOLUTELY 100%
Give him a medal and a leadership position in law engorcement
And he doesn’t have a job
Hes a sheriff deputy now
@@vickibyrd2043 p0ppp
Love his final statement, this young man is the future of this country
We need Millions more people like these two. I live in Cheatham County Tennessee Ashland City I know they're corrupt I would bet my soul on it. Like most places in this country especially the South it's passed on the generation after generation the good old boy. It needs to end because it's one of the things that's destroying this country. Good men do nothing evil will flourish
Kid seems like a good guy, I hope he has landed a good job. Reporting skills were top notch.
And his Quick Draw skills weren't too bad either!
CBS news took notice. If he didn't take advantage of this coverage, then he must be doing something else quite important.
That's a man, a young one, but a man!
We need more young people like this.
A lot more!!!!!!!!!
Yes we do
Herminio Bonilla
If I met these kids. I’ll salute them
🙂🤚
The world need many more people with the character of these 2 reporters, honesty and integrity is in short supply these days.
These people make me proud of our young folks.
ATF calls him "untouchable", some random 20 year olds bring him down.
Rippin FATVapez Feds can learn a lot from the newspaper kids. Hey ATF, maybe you guys can think about checking evidence logs next time. You should be embarrassed at your minimal efforts, now known worldwide.
Says a lot about the ATF.
"untouchable" AKA "we don't care"
No Drones where hurt in the making of this report.
@Khaos Inoculation yar, they just made it suppppper easy to make straw purchases. Wutta country.
"You never pull out a gun unless you're prepared to use it" with a smile. How can this guy be unemployed
Kentucky doesn't run bail agents.
I thought that was common knowledge.
Because there’s no demand for a journalist!
Excellent story. Outstanding news reporting by the small-town reporter and editor. Why can't we get this accomplished in D.C.?
Make journalism great again. This kid did some damn good journalism I hope his hard work pays off
It did pays off big one
I know for a fact that the number one thing these fascists fear is open conversation and open carry. They try to shut us up but we just get louder. Right now I'm around 138DB. It comes to about 1DB per PSI, and I'm running around 150. I hope they like loud noises. There's a train coming, for real this time. .
He's dead.....

Great job from those two journalists ...specially from Adam for being so young and fearless!
The police should be held to a higher standard, they should receive increased sentences.

*If only people knew just how ugly and Corrupt some Officials and Police/Sheriff Agencies are these days. If only they knew the **_"Back Room"_** dealings that go on between the Politized, arrogant and **_ladder climbing_** District Attorneys and the Defense Attorneys.

Arizona is main destination and transit point for child sex and hard labor. Law enforcement and system are trafficking. Very corrupt!

The problem here is the sheriff won't learn anything in prison and going to hunt everyone who hunts him down when release.
@@fendi-bull8167 My goodness, you are so right!! Painful conundrum!!
Wow! Real life heros! Thank you so much Mr. Adam and Ms. Samantha. May God bless your Soul.
That kid should become sheriff, he's got character.
Adam Sulfridge - Specialist at WC Sheriff's Department. According to LinkedIn.
I was thinking the same thing. Adam for sheriff!
he has backbone, brains, and balls.... right on young man!!!
and props to his partner as well, whatever paper she works at is lucky to have her.
Michael Wells oh yes! You want to see a man ... THATS A MAN!!!
That is the coolest 20 year old ever. Brought down an entire branch of corrupt police. Scared off two hitmen. Then he highroads the ending like a complete champ. Awesome
Right! And the seasoned vet said that the only reason they couldn’t get him was because he opened up to them in that interview.. man he needs to stop it, they got them because he sophisticated investigative research that they were too lazy to do
Fine young man, someone in high places should give him an internship quickly! What a gem.
Unemployed? I think this young person deserves a good paying job…. That kind of dedication, detail orientation, and sheer smarts, is employable anywhere - even if remotely.
Yep, he was doing 70hrs per week, and the lady was probably doing the same......good on them!! ❤
Those two are what true heroes look like!
Victor D. Easley AMEN!!!!!
Victor D. Easley Not heros they did the right thing because it was the right thing to do not because it was easiest. They did do an awesome job
And that young man should NOT be unemployed, I'm sure he's found work by now from that long ago but some news organization should have been scrambling to hire such a solid young person with his integrity....PERIOD. Getting speechless about this country.
@trey Loc: They're actually not snitches. Snitches are folks who are caught up in criminal activity and tell on others to get a reduced sentence when they get caught. Law abiding citizens are not true snitches. For example: Let's say your mother's house got broken into and items stolen, would you consider your mom a snitch (who I presume has never been in trouble before) if she reported the burglary?!.....
Derek Baker yeah like kobe snitch on shaq
"You never pull a gun unless you're prepared to use it." Good man.
I have great appreciation for such reporters who honor their work ethics, and cover such stories without caution to their own life. These are heroes.
Were these two journalists ever acknowledged Presidentially? An uplifting story of integrity overcoming corruption. Their country should be proud of them.
150K is a lot of money
rest of your life in prison is a lot of time.
best quote in the video.
Andrew Lowery i guess freedom is pretty expensive
he's a millionaire that's like a pocket change for him
Andrew Lowery my father paid my brother lawyer $90000 and pay the prosecutor $60000 my parents said they'd rather pay 1/2 million for my brother freedom to them that's like $0.05
Andrew Lowery I liked that old guy he was wicked practical.
Ashley Johnson Ummmmm your father paid off the prosecutor with $60,000? The prosecution took a bribe?
Wait two reporters did a better job than the Feds?
Two reporters did what the Feds said they couldn't do, find information/evidence of corruption. Two reporters did something, the Feds just took their paychecks and went home. There is so much corruption the Feds don't have time to run it all down. It is corrupt to not do your job also.
@@hlloyd-fs4uf dont know the full story but reporters arent limited by the same rules and regulations so dont be so quick to judge. Ita possible they found evidence, in the wrong way, that they was forced to ignore due to how they found it.
Point is, dont judge so quickly.
@A K the fed said they'd been trying to catch the guy for a long time but couldn't, because he was "untouchable". The reporters just looked at the evidence logs vs cases....something the feds had full access to. It was probably just a matter of time either way, but still
@@andreaskarlsson5251 This is possible, that is possible, anything is possible. Endless speculation gets us nowhere. It is possible they could have conducted an honest and complete investigation with their eyes open, but that didn't happen, as is obvious. The negligence, reluctance, and laziness is also obvious in this and many other cases. They have unlimited resources to investigate and pursue any private citizen, but only spent a few days twiddling their thumbs on this one. Open your eyes dude.
@@hlloyd-fs4uf "They have unlimited resources to investigate and pursue any private citizen"
No they don't. Where did you get that from? And honestly, don't know more than anyone else. Just saying, speculations is just that, speculations and one should refrain from doing such. But then again, this is youtube and you guys will always do that with heavy bias.
And I'm not saying they're guilty or innocent - I'm not in a position that I feel I can accurately make such a statement and I feel that none here are. That's all.
Oh yeah, I'm not your "dude".
That young man's attitude at the end was as clean as it gets.
I'm willing to bet Adam and I probably disagree on a lot of things despite similar, hometown upbringing, but his remarks at the end about what the real story of this corruption should be resonates strongly with me. The fact those two busted this open despite the danger is simply inspiring.
I went to high school with Adam, we worked on the school newspaper together. He was a cool guy. I remember seeing this when it aired and being both sad that my hometown had this kind of corruption but also proud that someone was able to expose it, even at great cost. Adam, if you read this, hope you are doing well, wishing you the best of luck in everything!!
NAME DROPPER!!!!

Hats off to Adam and Samantha two very brave youngsters who stood up for their neighbourhood, respect to you guys
Great job both of you THANKS4GIVING especially for your first walk in the park.
This is an absolute true brave reporter. The truth will keep you free.
You know how the penalties are doubled when you speed in a work zone?..... they should be tripled for police who break the law in their official capacity. Where a normal citizen gets a year behind bars, they should get three for abusing their power.
ABSOLUTELY AGREE!
2 very brave citizens for doing this.. would make a good movie...
Maybe a good book.. especially after what all has happened since 2012.......
Hollywood would make Ally out of the truth
These journalists is a whole vibe. Good work!!!
I never let a mans position in life speak for their character.....I let their actions do that.
Fric Said Not many people understood your wise comment. Kudos.
That young man is way ahead of his years. Solely based on his last comments. Good for him he's got a bright future
i wanna see a movie about this a good crime drama not a kids movie
No he's corrupt also. It's not just one apple.
What he says at the end says it all !
We need more journalism like these kids were doing.
Samantha is the kind of reporter we think of when we day dream of being a journalist. She's an investigator fighting to expose injustice, not looking for cheap stories or to push politics.
Yes 100%! We claim her ♡
Its sad because let it have been a black guy it would not been 15years for these serious charges it would of been 500yrs & up. White privilEge he got off just at yrs only wow ! For drugs charges alone they start 50 yrs.to 100 alone they give for the other serious charges as well high sentences & he gets of just .15 yrs. only wow! There's proof the system is rigged just for blacks. You can never lie to me & tell me this is not true period.
Those types of reporters are extinct. Today there are only political propagandists.
If two reporters can find evidence by looking for actual evidence and the ATF tried to find evidence against this same sheriff but never looked at actual evidence I think we can conclude they didn’t want to find anything!!!
I agree with you totally 💯 and this happens alot more than we are aware of my friend🤷♂️
Jmm
And they said the government is not the bad guy
Follow the Money!!!
Most of our government are corrupt and they protect each other. Even judges and appellate court judges are corrupt.
"Well you never pull a gun unless you're prepared to use it.". Love this kid. This is the mentality you should have if you're a gun-owner. Keep it close, keep it safe, but always be ready.
Also, his last answer on the last question says so much about him as a person.
Never underestimate the seemingly naïveté of youth. That’s ego and as this sheriff story says: it’ll bite you! Well done young team! Keep it up!
"Well, you never pull a gun unless you're prepared to use it." Fuuuuuuck yeaaaaaah, Adam! I love it. Dude knows what he's talking about.

It’s funny how they said that the city investigators couldn’t find the info the 2 news reporter found, it’s like well duh, the city investigator works for the sheriff.
Fear is a very real thing in a little town and when you add addiction to fear it leads to very closed ranks. One hand washes the other if you get my drift!

@@xXxTeenSplayer I think we get what he's saying so stfu.....this aint a grammar test
@Jen Lemmelin the victim? The victim is the system, ethics, citizens who bought drugs from a police officer.. all victims right there. You dont need a dead person to put someone away for nasty corruption of authority. So much so that you had an entire town and its ppl under a tight leash.. even caught trying to drop a hit on the two exposers. When the authorities tried to get evidence he refused to allow them in the search..
This is big. So victim? Yeah try the who town.
@Jen Lemmelin yeah definitely.. I once had issues with heroin myself. Instead of being sent to rehab police would illegally search my pockets evem thought [I swear] I did no hand off. Literally just left the house and was walking towards the deli just to have Freeport police say "Were gonna need identification right now". Me: only if I committed a crime and are under arrest, otherwise NO.
long story short they were dirty like most cops. Yes i had something on me but they had no reason to believe I did cus i JUST WOKE UP n walked outside. It's illegal to demand ID from random passerbys minding their own business. You cann9t just say "Man my drug charges are low. Anyone walking on this street is getting searched automatically. Idc if they did nothing wrong, everyone is getting searched so I can get my drug convicti9j numbers up".that is NOT good police work, that is police fishing. Theyre getting 100k+ per year just to sit on a corner and harass people. NO! NO MORE! You're suppose to be saving people, not harassing us. We're giving you our tax dollars so you can harass us with it. Anyways this cop was nasty with his 3 buddies. He was watching me in the past so he knew i have a girlfriend who he would ask disgusting questions about.. first he forcefully searched me without reasonable cause and found my stuff, arrested me and them while cuffed in the back seat would say very nasty sexual things about my gf. His 2 other goon buddies laughed at what he was saying as if he was funny. He wasn't, just very nasty and insulting so he said "You think Mary would go for an older guy like me?".. I noticed a wedding ban on his finger so I repiled "Idk what would your WIFE think about you going with her".. this little piggy turned bright pink and assaulted me yelling DONT YOU EVER EVER EVER TALK ABOUT MY WIFE. YOU DONT GET TO DO THAT.
His buddies tried to flip it on me like I messed up not him by saying "Ughh hey you know you kinda messed up right? You cant say stuff like that and expect to not get hit. You spoke about the man's wife you know.. that's a no-no".
I repiled: yeaaah but he could talk about the things he wants to do to my gf right? I didn't even say anything innaproperate or nasty. All I said was what would your WIFE think.. but it's good to see how America works.. only you tyrants have the right to be nasty and break the law while we should know our place and pay you to abuse us verbally and physically. You're literally facist, telling me how you could insult me while I need to shut my mouth and take it or I'll be abused. Why even be cops? Should of just joined a mob if you wanted to be corrupt.
Abusive Cop: ENOUGH!! YOU SHUT YOUR MOUTH.. YOU DONT LIKE THIS COUNTRY THEN LEAVE..
Me: I love this country,, just believe criminals like you should be behind bars so we can all be free.
Abusive Cop: Keep talking.. see how it'll work out for you..
[After that he stopped addressing me so there was nothing more to talk about]
But yes we need cops but they must be supervised and held accountable for their actions. This whole lazy sitting on corners searching random people is illegal. This whole push my weight around demanding things go my way needs to stop. There needs to be non biased workers who review police dashcams and bodycams everyday making sure they a trend corrupt. No more cops covering up cop crimes. Not right, we pay them to mess with us.. gonna stop.
7 more years later.... Will be a worrying time for this 2?
For this one dirty cop nailed, there are still tens of thousands still out there doing 'business' as usual.
Amen!!
mind reading...

lol...got busted eh?
john milner No, I haven't personally but, I'm watching friends and family suffer. I don't associate with criminals and my family is either medical,law enforcement, or military. Something is not right in Polk County, FL.
Very proud of these two, especially for taking their own self-defense seriously.
A movie should be made about this real life story. Kudos for the two brave journalists.
You know it's real reporting when other reporters want to interview the reporters. It's like they've never seen real reporting.

Guy: life in prison is a lot of time....
I agree.....The man has some since
@John Doe teach that boy some grammer
If you abuse your position in any branch of government it should be a life sentence behind bars.
And the thin blue line still got him off with a lighter sentence than anyone else would get.
That young man should run for the Sherriffs job, he is bright and unemployed!
Honesty can be funnier than funny!⚙️
Don't give him all the credit, Samantha worked by his side and they did this together.
@@fwsev where is she?
and where is he?
Or mayor
@@op3129 this was 2012 so im sure they both have better things going on by now.
What is this young, corageous, smart kid doing unemployed??? Get out of that small hole and move to a bigger place, the world needs people like you!
Whitley County needed him and they have him. Your big city isn't the "world." There's far more small towns than there are big cities. Not very worldly are you?
Adam you're a good-hearted, talented, trusted, honorable and handsome! Please don't get into politics!!😟
Employers are probably scared to hire this kid. They might end-up going to jail themselves. We live in a corrupt world- very few good people are left and he's one of them.
No, our small towns need these ppl DESPERATELY!!
If they go to the biger places they will certainly be killed

Just as it is here in Jefferson County, allot of people were upset that someone would get that nosy and ultimately cause a Grand Jury indictment a friend of the community.
This one NEVER gets old.....🙏💕
The kind of journalist we need more of!!
The dynamic duo, those 2 journalists are no joke!
Very impressive!
Yes, they are like the pesky reporters Bob Woodward and Carl Bernstein, the Washington Post reporters whose headline stories on the burgeoning Watergate scandal forced Richard Nixon to become the first U.S. president to resign while still in office.
"150k is alot of money"
"the rest of your life is alot of time"
flap jack The guy ask him the question knows da well he would've paid that money to LOL
Anyone that’s done any real time would of taken that deal 10/10. Money comes and goes. Time in prison is time you never can get back.
Flap jack that's how much I I payed in child support. My kids were 16 n 17 CSS RETORGRADED BACK 7 YEARS. its only money
😂😂😂😂😂
dude hit the nail on the head. it's true and sad at the same time.
I hope he will always stay safe. He is one brave young man.
Wish we had 300M of this young men and women. Respect to both and the community
Those two young journalists have balls of steel. SALUTE!
Collier Todd Hageman he's better than main stream media for sure.
Mad solution to you people...😕😒🙃
Funny cops are considered heroes for just being a cop two cizitens take down dangerous corrupt heroes and they are not even given a pat on the back for being heroic by the FBI for what they did something very wrong with our justice system scary.
Todd Hageman no they’re young and ignorant
A kid anyone would love to be the parent of.
True that
Not the sheriff.
Glad to see that some journalists STILL care about the Truth!!!
Now that's what Im talking about. That's how you get her done. Great job!, keep up the great work.
That kid is an old soul. He's going places
